April 2026 focused on delivering a critical UX feature in thunderbird/thunderbird-l10n while advancing localization. Key accomplishment: a user-facing warning for permanent deletion of old messages, appearing for both remote server and local storage, reducing the risk of irreversible data loss. This feature was implemented alongside Fluent-based localization work (Part 2 of Bug 1744107) to migrate message retention strings to Fluent and improve multi-language support. No major bugs fixed this month; minor QA and localization alignment tasks supported the release.
